" Let us start our grand tour
of the year, my little friend.
It will be a voyage
of discovery."
{A Countryman's Winter Notebook}
Dear January
you arrived with
an abundance of
challenges.
I spent many days
reciting the mantra
be.here.now...
for I felt that as long
as this moment
was good,
all would be well.
thankfully,
I was not wrong.
in the end,
nothing that happened
couldn't be easily fixed.
the silver lining...
many books read,
10 full push ups achieved!!
a pot of bulbs
that bloomed on
January 1st.
what joy!
the days lengthen,
light brightens...
a mildness lingers in the air.
what new voyages of discovery
might this year bring?
